Can you confirm that this fix is safe? My antivirus is warning me not to use it.
indeed i can. here is the virustotal scan of the zip:

don't know what kind of anti-virus you're using, but that fix literally consists of an extracted and repacked original file that has some hex-data edited out (the bugging sound), a readme and a batch to match file names and load order in the installation folder. the analysis shows no positives whatsoever in 58 different scans. if you don't trust my (or any other files in general), i'd recommend uploading and scanning the file to virustotal yourself: https://www.virustotal.com/
it's a website to check for viruses via multiple anti-virus programs and belongs to google: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirusTotal
if any other of you want my fix, look up youtube videos about the problem. i posted this in like half a dozen comment sections or so. i also posted it in a reddit thread in /r/DeadSpace, which made me work this out in the first place. you can also send me a personal message, although i don't check in here that often. alternatively, send me an e-mail: stonyrue[at]gmail.com

Wow. So funny. Someone steps up and does the simple job that a single programmer at EA could have done and then this... they take his archive down. Wow. Am I ever happy I downloaded them ahead of time.
To the creator of this amazing fix:
See if you can post your work somewhere else. Like ModDB or Nexus. This fix needs to be out there.
good idea. i will post the fix to ModDB.
edit: the fix is now available on ModDB. http://www.moddb.com/games/dead-space-3/downloads/kinesis-door-audio-stutter-fix
i hope that posting this link is allowed. the upload was manually authorized by ModDB staff.
i also made a before/after comparison video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21lJgA01kdQ

Sorry, I have had to remove those link to those files, we cannot have random compressed archives here as they pose a security risk to players.
If your AV is being triggered by those files, delete them or let your AV quarantine them. As above, I have removed the previous links.
i posted scans above. that should be sufficient proof, that the files are safe. i'd also like to remind you that it was your own staff that asked us to find a workaround for this issue.
